In addition to volunteering for ZNet, I also produce radio with Redeye, a weekly radical current affairs program heard on Vancouver Cooperative Radio. Redeye is a collectively produced show which covers politics, arts, culture and ideas. The show has been around for well over 25 years and I have been a collective member for the past five. Below is a bunch of interviews that we recently produced that you can listen to on-line. The interviews range from Phyllis Bennis on Iraq’s coming election, Ali Abunima on the recent Palestinian election, debt relief for countries affected by the tsunami, and a potential new national Child Care program for Canada.


Redeye is a three hour program broadcast Live every Saturday morning from 9 am -noon (PST). You can listen to the Live streaming broadcast by going here. To translate the time difference from where ever your at go here. To receive a one a week e-mail of what’s coming up on the show send us an e-mail requesting we add you to our mailing list. There is a sample e-mail announcement at the bottom of this blog to see what it looks like; e-mail this address to start receiving them: [email protected]
